I am pulling the transmission and t case out of my 1997 tj the end of this week to put all new seals in. Where can a get a good gasket set? None of the cheap cork stuff. I have the ax-15 and np 231.
 
you shouldnt need a gasket set. the most youll need IF theyre leaking is the input and output shaft seals on the ax15 and the input and output shaft seals for the tcase. as for the front bearing cover(where the input shaft seal is) u just need some high temp gasket maker. same thing for the input shaft bearing cover for the tcase too. thats all i use and i have the exact setup as u.
 
They are def leaking and I am haveing to pull the tranny anyways so I might as well replace them all. I was planning on using ford grey silicone bc thats what we use it work and its some good stuff. I just didnt know if there was anything else anyone would recommend.
 
Where is it leaking from? There is a weep hole that drains fluid that leaks from the output seal of the tranny. I can't think of any other seals. The two halves of the tranny can be sealed with RTV as can the t-case halves.
FWIW, I have dropped t-cases twice to do sye and did not replace the seal. Ended up having to drop them both again to put the seal in. So now I either leave the t-case in when doing an sye or have the $10 seal ready to replace.
